Request for PICS or other explanations.

I have found a few threads that mention different ways to secure the tank after relocating the key, however, the pics are all gone since the threads are aged. One mentioned a bracket under the tank with a bolt nut to hold it down. The other a leather strap of some sort. Anyone with their key relocated care to share how they are holding the tank down?

Thanks!

The hook for the tank clip is on the frame snd not the key barrel on many models.

I built two custom bikes with relocated ignition switches.  One retained the original latch and the other had a bracket welded to the underside of the tank for a thumb-screw to be threaded in.
